What
Is the Power Source for the Airships?
Q:
What are the power sources that will be used in the airlift, that will occur
around the end of the century; those that are
currently known and, if not, can you tell us something about your perceptions
of them? RK:
I am quite convinced that all of the things that we will need for our
aircraft, which will float above the surface of the Earth for two weeks and
all of the excitement going on down below on Earth, have
already been developed. It is just a different application of that
technology. I will admit that we do not have a handle yet on all of those
developments mainly because of the US government is the one who has
accomplished those things and we are not entirely privy to all that yet. But, I believe, in the next five or ten years, that stuff
will become quite into the open. Every so often, astronauts, those people who
are involved with NASA, let drop a very tantalizing piece of information which, when questioned about later, they will
never verify. “I didn’t say that. Something is wrong with your tape.”
Meanwhile, we are probing, as best we can, into all of the literature that is
available. There is just a lot which is coming out
now. The scientific information that is available is so different now than it
was twenty-years ago. It is hard to believe that so much—you might call it
far-out kind of information—is being available in print: the fantastic things
that Tesla came up with. He is the one who invented
transmission of power through alternating current. He went far beyond all
that sort of thing. As he began to tap into more and more of those, it seems
like he had a perception of energy in the Universe that nobody since has had.
As people began to dig into it more and more, the
scientists are getting excited about some of the things that he was talking
about and which, indeed, when they put together some of the experimental
equipment and see the kind of things that they do, raises more questions
about the nature of the Universe that they were after, which is good, of
course. But, it is embarrassing to go to an
expert and the expert has to say, “I don’t know” because it is always nice to
have things in nice, neat packages. But yet, they are the kinds of exercises
that make mankind grow and ??embillus??
us, in the long run. So, we
do not have all the answers yet—neither science nor The Stelle Group.
Actually I like to think that The Stelle Group scientists are pretty much in
tune with what I am sure, somehow, that all the information will come to us
in due time. Actually, there is only seven years left
before we start construction of those vehicles. We are going to need
two-thousand of them. The next question is how do
we raise the money for all those? I suspect that the way that we will do that
is people who are interested in occupying a seat on one of those, at the
proper time, will put forth the money for their portion of that particular
vehicle. We plan to use those aircraft for commercial purposes and use them,
not necessarily, for carrying passengers but carrying freight into different
parts of the world because we think that would be quite economical to
operate. (04-1983) |
